Dude, he got 4.38 on his own track while being clocked by a guy from the Detroit media. Every other indifferent (if not more credible) source has him listed slower than that. What do you think all that means? Do you honestly think that he ran a 4.38? Even if he did, does that in any change his performance at the combine (when he had an equal playing field with everyone else)?

And yes, the people that use phrases such as "the speed of the SEC", or this conference is faster than this conference are just idiots. Follow high school recruiting. Fast players go to all of the top conferences. There is no region of our country that magically produces biologically superior human beings.

And yes, the Big 10 has a pretty good conference top to bottom. Easily in the top 3 conferences at least. But the SEC has been the best for the last couple years, I'd wager.

Thats where you are wrong. There are areas of our country that produce superior athletes It is called warmer weather areas. You see while the Big 10 states of the north are freezing their *** off we in the south are having our kids running track. They are competing against each other and making each other faster. take a look at the leaders for prep track they all come from the south. The only speed Michigan and Ohio have comes from the southern states and California.

No the Big 10 is not a very good conference for top to bottom, the SEC is a good conference from top to bottom. The Big 12 was a good conference from top to bottom last year but generally speaking we are a top heavy conference.

The Big 10 has tOSU who is an elite team, they have an above average Michigan team and nothing else. Penn State is a shell of what it once was and everyone else is the suck.

Did you or anyone else actually watch Manningham's 40's though? He clearly isn't a sprinter. In both 40s during the combine he had terrible starts and choppy steps. Everyone said the same thing.
If you think he's not just as fast as Sweed, someone's spiking your kool-aid. The 40 doesn't even matter. His game speed is much faster than Sweeds. I think we can all agree on that.
SEC is the most solid conference. They're still overrated though.

Has Manningham ever done anything in a big game?

Sweed sure has, including winning touchdown against tOSU, played huge against USC for the MNC, played huge against Oklahoma.

You see while the Big 10 states of the north are freezing their *** off we in the south are having our kids running track. They are competing against each other and making each other faster. take a look at the leaders for prep track they all come from the south.

For his entire college career, Limas Sweed has five 100 yard recieving games. Mario Manningham, on the other hand, has 11 career 100 yard recieving games. Oh yeah, Manningham also played one year less than Sweed.
